RriYafe Police In RussiA.

A few years ago there also existed in
Russia sort of private police system
which was 50 peculiar in organization and
conduct that a description of IT may he
interesting. Ii was called the Holy
League The death of Gar Alexander
III terrified the people no less than the
courts. The Holy league was an associa-
ton of loyal people to protect the young
car. who might well have exclaimed
with Henry w: MAY the Lord deliver
me from my friends; can take care of
INV enemies myself" The idea Of the
association was to protect the young car
from the fate of his father. The Holy
league Loiataja druIzina) was a secret
order, or brotherhood. The members.
among them many of the nobility.
formed a sort of unpaid volunteer police
corps. The founders of the league had
the idea that they must fight the Nihilists
with their own weapons, and 50 every
thing was conducted with ominous Sec
cesy. One scheme WAS To offer rewards
to worknen and peasants for information
about revolutionists or their affairs This
led only to futile endeavors to follow up
false scents.
The folly of the heads of the league
went 81 far as to attempt To initiate the
ings-even to send men to Switzerland
and England to put out of the way living
Niliilists. Like every novel proposition,
however foolish. the plan found numeT-
Gus enthusiastic supporters among the
loyal people. 1t was received with joyful
applause. Many. among them tine Jews.
contributed money to the undertaking
with great ostentation, in order To show
their loyalty. But the league was a mere
fiasco. They captured few NilIilists. and
indeed more police officers. On the other
hand, many of the so called Nihilists ar
rested by the policemen were shown to lie
members of the Holy league. So the league
brought confusion into the conduct of the
government and died after a year of spas
modic life. The amount of contributions
was about $2a5, 900, which was so skill
fully managed by the gracious premier.
who acted as treasurer, that there was
nothing left in the treasury at the end of
the year.-Frederick Owen in Kansas

Work Done i'm n Mine.

A gentleman in st. Louis said recently:
people talk of the old Comstock mine.
but they have little ilea what it was,
or what an immense amount of work
was done there. Take the Consoli
dated California and Virginia. Every
month for nearly four years 5000. eco
feet of lumter was used there for tim
bering-enough To build "A large city
three times over. THE amount of hoist
ing done was simply wonderful. Eight
hundred men We're raised and lowered
three times in the twenty -four hours, the
tools We're several times a day brought to
the surface for sharpening, 5000 tons of
ice were lowered for daily use, and = 900
tons of ore raised to the surface. Men
coming out of tine mines on the hottest
day of the summer We're chilled on
striking the surface air. the change was
SD great You can get some idea of the
immensely of the works from the fly
wheel at the Union shaft, it alone weigh

work done on all paying mines, but this

''Going back to- Tombstone"

''Well-er-fve Just had one, but

Presbyterian Reunion.
Philadelphia Times


Col. Livingston, of Georgia, hit very
near the bulls eye i'm his speech before
the Southern Presbyterian Assembly at
st. Louis on Tuesday afternoon, IN say
ing that when all other interests We're
burying the issues and differences of the
war. the church should not be the last to
harmonize- This utterance was made as
part of an imprisoned speech in favor
of union with the Northern Assembly
and is characterized by good hard sense.
1t is not claimed that in doctrine or
church government Southern Presbyte-
rianism differs from Northern Presbyte-
rianism. The original division was
caused when i'm 1861. the General Assem-
bly, i'm session i'm this city, declared that
no member of the church should bear
arms against the government No
Presbyterian, North or South, is now
hearing arms against the government.
and the sole cause of the division has
passed away forever.
What is true of the Presbyterian
Church is Just as true of the Methodist
Episcopal body and other organizations.
1t is time that these great religious bod
les awake to- the fact that they are be-
hind everybody else in accepting the re-
suit of the war. Instead of being in the
foreground of the effort to harmoniZe the
sections, as their profession of peace and
good will to men requires them to be,
they are still maintaining sectional dis
tmctions for which there does not exist "a
shadow of reason.

Suicide or Murder.
Tampa Journal


Last Friday afternoon the people liv-
ing in the neighborhood of the city bak-
cry were thrown into considerable eX-
element upon learning that Willie
Hartman had been found dead in his
room over the bakery. On learning the
fact Marshal Haskins and Policeman Boil
immediately repaired to the bakery and
upon breaking in the door of the room.
found Hartman's BODY LAYING face down
ward in a pool of blood, his throat cut
from ear to ear and blood-stained razor
lying ON the floor, with which, evident
ly, the deed was committed Justice
Keller, the coroner, Immediately ordered
a Jury of inquest summoned, since
which time they have conducted their
deliberations, but without arriving at
any satisfactory solution of the mystery.
They were to have met last night to
examine MIR. Wagner, partner of the de-
ceased, who was expected tn return from
a trip down the coast whittier he had
gone few days prior to the tragedy.
Several letters We're found. but none of
them threw any light on the case. The
evidence of the colored boy employed at
the bakery revealed the fact that he had
been sent for medicine for pains in the
stomach by the deceased about IL clock
and that upon returning and not finding
him he waited until nearly O'Clock,
when in searching the house for him he
discovered the corpse through a crack in
the door of his ROOM DIR. jackson was
of the opinion that the wounds We're not
self inflicted. What the object of the
murder is, if it was murder, is mys-
terry. as the deceased, though only res
ident here a short time. was well liked
Neither could it have been robbery, as
his watch and money were untouched.
The verdict of the jury will be awaited
with much interest. MIR. III. c. Ferris Is
foreman of the jury.
